QUICK! take this page before i get swallowed by insecurity again!

no but really, hello again everyone. thank you so much everyone who's been sticking by hemlock waiting for a new page. i'm really sorry it's been so long, my brain has been in a difficult place for the last few months. i'm not sure what's up with me, but it's super irritating.

i can't promise that there will be pages every week or regular updates just yet, this could be a fluke, but please know that when there -is- a new page, it will go up. i'm not giving up on this webcomic! \(>m<)/

also, if you want updates about the status of things, the best place to look is my tumblr and twitter, not here - i'm mildtarantula on both those sites too.

WEEPING IN GLEE

I AM SO EXCITED THAT YOU UPDATED THANK YOU! As usual the art is beautiful and your style is always visually interesting. I'm loving Lumi's facial expression right now! I can't wait to see where the story goes from here! :)

It's most important that you be in a happy and healthy place, but I'm awfully glad to hear that Hemlock will continue! It's a wonderful project and a great story but it shouldn't be a source of pressure for anxiety for you.

I would concur with Lumi. Oh no.
Sindri says 'where is the frog' like a statement instead of a question. I wonder if that means he's not expecting an answer from Lumi but is going to go find out?
Glad to see another page! I understand what you mean with brain going to difficult, irritating, not very-productive place. I hope you get out of your funk soon!

Hurray!

This made me so happy! ლ(=ↀωↀ=)ლ
When I first found this comic, I read it all in one sitting -neglectig my school work in the process (lol). Then I saw it hadn't been updated in a while, and I became really sad. BUT, I didn't give up! I kept checking the page! And it was totally worth it. ^^
